Afterglow

I am slowly but surely starting to come off my high from the concert. It was just a great show with great musicians who actually play instruments and write their own stuff. I have posted my opinions about that before though so I am not going to get into it again. Gavin and Howie are just amazing, I really want to see them again, and Missy Higgins too. I had a ton of fun.

I really like sleep. More than most people and it is not really concerning me yet, but a lot of people are seeming to comment on it right now. I would almost think I should be tested for mono if I had not been this way for the last couple of years. What is basically comes down to is, I can sleep any time, anywhere. The other night I was at Drake's and he, his uncle Matt, and one of his cousins were all sitting in the sunroom talking and Nicole and I both just fell asleep. Granted it was later in the evening, but I just fell asleep in someone else's sunroom. It's weird. And once I am out, I am OUT. During the last school year Teetz never let me sleep if we were going to dinner within the hour because it always takes me so long to come out of it again. He says it's almost like I am drunk because I shuffle around and mumble for about 20 minutes before I am finally coherent again. Another case in point, last night I went to bed before Drake and I guess he tried to wake me up to move me because I was in the middle of the bed and there wasn't enough room for him, but he said I was in such a deep sleep I didn't move so he had to inch me over little by little. And I guess he was holding onto my arm to move me and it slipped out of his grasp and hit him really hard in the face. Luckily it didn't leave a mark, I'd feel bad about that, though I guess it wouldn't really be my fault, I was sleeping after all. I guess I am lucky to be able to sleep on command but it's not always helpful, because I am pretty sure I could fall asleep at work at my register. I am sure I would get in trouble for that one.

I got all my photo albums done finally, starting from freshman year of college up until the latest photos I took, which were the concert pictures. Those turned out AMAZING, by the way, just like the concert itself. I have three albums, each holds 300 pictures...And the third one is almost all the way full. I have taken a lot of pictures in the last four years, but it was such a trip down memory lane seeing some of those again. I miss Nicole, she went back to Pennsylvania after freshman year and I have such fun pictures from when we went to California over Spring Break. I also found pictures of Britt and I getting ready for my first ever Pike party back in the days of Cody and Marshall and those guys. Talk about a lifetime ago, I am not even the same person anymore. Then junior year and all my pictures of Adam and I and those crazy parties at the apartment. I think there is at least one or two pictures from every party where Silas or Moose has me up on their shoulders or are at least picking me up. I definitely need those guys to hold me up sometimes, literally and figuratively, because like I said in a recent post, I love my friends a lot and am so lucky to keep the company that I do. I wish everyone was as lucky as me. I don't have nearly as many pictures of Drake and I as I would like, but we're just starting out, and there will be plenty of time for bar pictures and all sorts of stuff like that, I am just kind of sad he will never get to go to a formal with me because those days are also behind me. I'm sure he's not too broken up about it, but hey, they were good times. I know I'll take plenty of pictures at Roxy's wedding in October if he goes with me. I know he said he would, but that is also the day of the Nebraska/Oklahoma game and I don't want him to miss it because I know he really wants to go and I want him to. But I wouldn't mind having him at the wedding with me either, since I will know absolutely no one except the bride and groom. We'll see what happens.

For now there are no countdowns, not to any fun stuff anyway, mostly just crap like school starting again. Oh the humanity.
